can toda valve springs handle 12.9mm valve lift just like skunk pro stg 2?? anybody have any experience running above 12.7mm valve lift with toda springs??

 

I ran Toda 'D's with Toda springs and had no problems. 12.9mm advertised intake lift.

 

oww.. only toda spring with out any custom retainers? how high you rev that motor todd??

 

Portflow retainers. 9,500.

 

im running the toda valvesprings in retainers w/ Skunk Pro 2's in my hatch and revved to 9.2k fine...im sure it could've revved higher though

 

i love toda valvesprings.

however, why not run what valvesprings the manufacturer of the cams advertises?

My point is that some manufacturers will only honor their warranty if the other parts are up to snuff - meaning only their valvetrain with their cams, etc.

 

jt-sport, would toda springs strong enough with skunk2 pro-series stage 3?

 

been using toda springs with the Pro2..rev it, drag it for bout 6 mth...no problem man.

 

Toda VS will handle the pro2 and your stock vavles as well

wow 9.2k? I might have to be looking into this setup. what kind of power is it making to the wheel? This would all run on a stock block right?

What retainers did you have a problem with? The best avail Valve spring at the moment is the Skunk Pro for the Bseries. I sell all of them, better

arrrgghh...
you mean the bottom of the retainer should be machined thinner ?? how much (mm) don??
my bad experience in early 2000 is with JG retainer (they claim it was TI, but i think it was alumunium).. 2 of my d series motor blown because their retainer.. thats why i never use aftermarket retainer.

Don, since i never see skunk2 pro series retainer. what is your experience with this pro series retainer?
it doesnt mean i didnt trust skunk2, but im still traumatized with anything related to aftermarket retainer.

thanks don.

same here... i run it on the track almost to 9.5K on my stock shortblock ITR (setup was on the bottom of my sig, toda springs+pro2)... the peak was on 9ish-k
and on the dyno, this motor have seen 10.3k several time.. its because we dont watched the tach while we watching the graph climbing when we floor the car on the dyno..

 

Better use the same manufacturer's product, if i were u.Ti retainers what brand did u use ?

 

I am using that set-up Pro2 with Toda Springs /Crower Ti retainer....so far no problem at all...daily driven with round 20k miles....

same as my last ITR setup.
but now im building b20vtec and i plan to go with pro3 camshaft...
thats what im concern about..

im still waiting DonF to hit me back.........

 

Toda springs are rated to 12.5mm lift...i would check the install heigth and make sure the springs are not going to bind or bottom out. I've seen it happen on motors running D's with it not set up right.
